Ester Independence Day Parade & Pig Roast Potluck
Advertisement
Interior Alaska's quirkiest way to celebrate Independence!
THE PARADE:
The parade begins at the corner of Ester Loop and Main Street, progresses down Main Street to the Judges' stand (across from the Golden Eagle Saloon) then follows Village Road to the Old Nenana, past the post office to the park.
Sign-up and line-up 11 a.m. - 11:45 a.m. Marching begins at noon!(Bribes for judges are strongly encouraged!) No pre-registration required.
ESTER MORTGAGE INDEPENDENCE
We paid off our park mortgage!! We want to celebrate by honoring all the donors, volunteers and supporters over the years who made that possible. Special recognition and celebrations will be included throughout the day's activities.
THE POTLUCK & PICNIC - 1 p.m.
Potluck starts at 1 p.m. In addition to a truly incredible pig, the ECA provides burgers and dogs and some sides/salads.
Bring generously sized potluck items to the community park following the parade for ONE FREE ENTRY.
THE PIG
Cuban-style roasted pig is incredible!! We will once again feature a delicious pig with this year's picnic/potluck.
THE PRICE
Suggested pig roast/potluck donations are $5 kids, $10 adults, $25 immediate family.
Donations above costs support the Ester Community Park!
Looking for something lighter? We have limited items available a la carte. Skip the food line and head straight to the grill for:
Hamburger -$4
Hot dog - $2
Water/Soda - $1
THE PICNIC & GAMES
We have a great field to enjoy picnicing and games.
Planning to bring your own food instead of potlucking? Please consider leaving a donation in the "appreciation station" by the gazebo to help support the park which offers such enjoyment for so many families for all these years. Or branch out this year and participate in the community potluck. The more who participate the better it is for all!
